“This was an incredibly difficult read. It requires you to truly think about harsh themes, harsh words, and develop an understanding for so many different perspectives. Very well-written and a presentation of what true representation in literature should signify. To read Another Country is to learn through fiction. I would recommend to anyone looking to expand their knowledge on pain, empathy, and love.”

“I did not think I would enjoy this book as much as I did. The synopsis was very vague and I definitely took a chance but I don’t regret it. I feel like there was so many things I missed and I would read this book over and over again.”
